Marks and Spencer and Oxfam’s Another Life scheme

The Oxfam and M&S Another Life scheme makes it even easier to give your unwanted clothes a second life.

Every item donated as part of Another Life makes a difference, and Oxfam knows how to make the most money out of every single item. Unwanted clothes donated by the public to Oxfam shops or in M&S stores are turned into millions of pounds every year – whether by selling them in our shops, selling them overseas or recycling them.

Since the partnership began in 2008, right up to 2021, over 35 million garments have been donated in M&S and Oxfam Shops, worth an estimated £23 million for Oxfam.

You'll be given a £5 voucher when you make a donation to an Oxfam Shop and the donation contains at least one item of M&S-labelled clothing (including shoes, handbags, belts, hats and scarves) or M&S-labelled soft furnishings (bed linen, towels, cushions, curtains, throws, aprons, tablecloths and napkins). This offer does not include donations of the following M&S clothing: swimwear, underwear, socks, or damaged or soiled items. Only one voucher will be issued per visit.
